I awoke somehow pinned to the floor in a blanket of thick white webbing. Flynne was standing near me clutching a now empty potion bottle. The webs obscured any sign of what might be going on, but I could hear the sounds of combat and the wizard’s screams from deep within them. Abruptly, the...

When we got to the door, the masked spellcaster was long gone. Endo fished his pet raven from the folds of his robe and sent it winging its way down the corridors to see if it could find the wizard. From around the corridor, we could hear a number of sizzling bangs followed by a squark. The bird...

Inside the room, the fight was going slowly for Niccoli, particularly as the two acolytes swiftly drank potions, turning their bodies into strangely floating mists. From my side, Endo tried again to give the allip instructions. “Go and hunt the kenku in the maze,” he shouted at it. To our...

As we stood staring at the slender columns in the corridor, a thin hand tapped me on the shoulder. When I had stopped screaming, and my heartbeat had returned to something like normal, I realised that Flynne had returned to us, creeping up stealthily through the maze. Enthused by our friend’s...

Creeping onwards, we were ambushed once again. Stone panels slid open behind and amidst us, whilst kenku dashed from several directions. One was larger than the others, whilst another chanted briefly as he advanced, directing a narrow dark lance of energy at Niccoli, sapping him of strength and...

Pausing only to cast a spell of strength enhancement on Niccoli, the two warriors crashed through the wall mere moments before the room became too small for them to swing their weapons. It led into a small dark passageway, which we all packed into. Endo paused for a few moments to examine the...

I drew my rapier, dashed the length of the room and then thrust with it. The blade took the kenku neatly at the base of the throat, and it gurgled bloodily, slumping to the floor even as I withdrew the blade. I gazed in astonishment at how easily it was to kill a living being. Heavily wounded...

As we were exhausted by our efforts in the Erythnull temple, we rested for a long time. After the first night, Flynne was keen to press onwards as far and as fast as possible, but we were too tired and our resources too spent to enter a new temple. We spent another day and night without...

Absolutely. We went into a maze filled with secret doors without the elf rogue with all the spot/listen/search skills. Can you say "ambush"?

Thanks-whatting? We're from Blighty, and know not of such things! I did the last update early, and we played again last night. We've all gained a huge dislike of kenku rogues in a series of ambushes. Still, we reckon we've got past the easy bit of the 3rd temple...

In the party treasure, we have a silver elven armband, with a 'list price' of 75gp. I said to Russ that I'd post my 'sales pitch' here, rather than roleplaying it, as it's fairly drawn out and would get boring for everyone else. Step 1: Find rich elf (we have one in the form of the mine-owner...

To add a little more OOC information, we've now reached level 5. Endo's player (Darmanicus) is hugely excited at the prospect of third level spells, and we're all horrified that he's probably going to be the first level 5 wizard ever not to have fireball. And to answer the question, Morrus has...

Items were snatched from the bodies by greedy hands, especially once we realised the worth of the heavily enchanted banded mail the three grimlocks had been wearing. The cleric had been carrying a silver key as well as a number of scrolls, one of which spoke of visions he had had in the smoke...

The raging Igmut hacked down the grimlock he and Niccoli had flanked, and then he charged towards the cleric. The cleric responded by flinging another spell at the half-orc, who completely ignored its effects in his fury. The cleric’s unholy hammer continued to smash Endo around the head, and I...

We retraced our steps, and made our way down another of the corridors, this time emerging into a large cave with some glowing embers at the far side, partially wreathed in thick smoke. Three large grimlocks were given orders by an unseen fourth figure, and they lumbered towards us. Each was...

By this stage, Niccoli was out of sight on the other side of the rope bridge, clearly in combat with the unseen grimlocks. Towards the far side of the bridge stood Endo, who was aiming a further shot with his wand up beyond Niccoli. Flynne had climbed up to me and was aiming his bow towards the...

From the chasm below, Flynne’s grappling hook sailed up and bounced off the rock ledge. He threw again, and this time it caught – he began to climb. Igmut descended to the chasm floor and stood by waiting for his turn to climb up to the ledge. Almost immediately, a grimlock appeared in sight on...

We scaled the wall and stood at the edge of the three strand rope ladder. Swaying slightly in the slight breeze, the three aging ropes led some 50 feet across the chasm and up to a ledge on the other side. We couldn’t see what was on the ledge, as it was too far above us, and the age and decay...
